We are all responsible for the safeguarding of vulnerable adults and children.
This safeguarding adults leaflet is aimed mainly at workers in Health or Social Care. However, if you are a member of the public, the information will still be useful if you are concerned that a vulnerable adult is experiencing abuse. You can pick up a copy at the surgery or print one from the link below.

Keeping children safe is everyone's responsibility. The information here is relevant to those working in the statutory or the independent sector, as well as to members of the wider community.
It applies to all children and young people irrespective of whether they are living at home with their families and carers or away from home.
